Books by Edward Dyson

Edward George Dyson (1865-1931), or ''Ted'' Dyson, was an Australian journalist, poet, playwright and short story writer. He was the elder brother of illustrators Will Dyson (1880-1938) and Ambrose Dyson (1876-1913), with three sisters also of artistic and literary praise. Dyson wrote under several - some say many - nom-de-plumes, including Silas Snell.

With Lawson known as the ''swagman poet'', Ogilvie the ''horseman poet'', Dyson was the ''mining poet''. Although known as a freelance writer, he was also considered part of The Bulletin writer group.
